JUAN DE FUCA TRAIL: 3-day backpack along the wild coast

Join us for 3 days and 47 km along the wild coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. My husband Brian and I fall in love with this incredible trail and we hope you will too.
I share with you the story of our journey, a little bit of my knowledge of the plants and animals, and a complete gear list.
You can find all of my gear below.
Thank you so much for watching,
Krys
